ERO 1818 capacitor replacement

[edwyun]

Hello, I am trying to find a replacement for this cap. Can't tell if MKT or MKP etc. They are for the output stage of a DAC (1uF, 63V apparently). Thank you.

Again, a WIMA with the same spacings will be fine.

Is it defective? What's that grey goo on top of it?

Best regards!

Any difference between MKT and MKP except for electrolyte? Not sure what I would choose.

Appears to be. Don't know what the grey good is.

MKT is polyester, MKP is polypropylene. Both are metallized foils. MKP is better in some applications, but bigger for the same capacitance/voltage than MKT.
Check also MKS capacitors, they are also good. In any case, desolder the suspect part and measure.

Have you tested it?

Those film capacitors usually last forever, even the Wima 2200pf ones.
